Bear brings out the dead, sends the contestants crawling through the swamp for bugs and sits their bare-cheeked bottoms on a block of ice to determine who can survive and bank $10,000.

I Survived Bear Grylls

Do They Bite?

Bear serves up a spoonful of brains, a bird poop rainstorm, and puts the contestants through a sharpshooter slingshot challenge to find out if one of them can survive him and earn $10,000 for new boobs.

I Need Boobs!

Bear ignites the game with a smelly challenge, then strips the challengers of their clothes for an arctic ice bath; then, he offers up an eight-legged course to determine who can walk a mile in his shoes.

Bear's Intimate Ice Bath

Bear takes his evil game up a notch by breaking contestants' legs and zapping them to simulate the agony of having a fractured leg in the wild; an alligator is an added danger, so Bear knows who can survive him and claim the $10,000.

Hit Me With Your Best Shock

Bear takes a new crop of contestants to the top of Mt. Sherpa, down to the desert for a stomach-churning game, and onto a rain-soaked rock face to see who can survive; in the mayhem, he gets a shocking confession.

Mom's Gonna Kill Me

Bear cooks up new challenges that include drinking a signature Bear Grylls cocktail and stuffing the contestants in a blacked-out box to simulate an avalanche; only one of the five contestants will survive Bear and leave $10,000 richer.

I Ain't Cosplayin'

Bear throws down the gauntlet for armchair survivalist Matt, who thinks he'll win; an ex-NFL cheerleader, bull testicles and a filthy challenge from Bear stand in the way of Matt taking home the $10,000 prize.

Going Commando

Survivalist Bear Grylls tests five wannabe survivalists with extreme, gross and hilarious challenges based on his own adventures; an obsessed superfan tries to be the first one to survive Bear and win the $10,000 prize.
